Social Saturday – 2012 Christmas Decor!

I thought it was high time to remedy that and give you a tour of my home all dressed up for Christmas.

Ready?

My pride and joy is my Christmas tree!

Its a complete fake and I love it. And this year I finally replaced all of the lights that have burned out in the past so its back to all of its original glory! Shine on, tree, shine on.

Also close to my heart is our mantel.

I purchased some new pine garland for it this year. Its from Martha Stewart (is there anything she doesn’t sale?) and is flocked, full of pine cones, and pre lit with LED lights. Nothing not love there!

Also new this year is my trio of pre-lit cone trees sitting at the bottom of the fireplace.

They are silver and full of glittery goodness!

And I may or may not have involved 2 employees and a manager at the store they came from to help me figure out what the price was for them. I wanted them bad!!

I also have a few new items (angel, twigs, and Santa cone) on top of the mantel as well as some old (Santa’s Belt Hurricane).

Also new this year is my little birch deer from Target!

He’ll probably stick around all winter and/or longer.

I’m not sure I can pack him away!

This is the entryway.

My little Santa collection has taken over the old Singer sewing machine this year.

The pine tree is real. We’re going to plant in the yard in the spring.

I think they both add a little something extra to “the cave.”

Have you seen the tomato cage Christmas trees all over Pinterest?

I have 4 and decided to give it a try. I was going to wrap them with deco mesh ribbon, but as you can see in the top photo (arrows) they are barely visible with just the cage and string of lights. So I decided to leave them as is. And they look great lit up at night!

Not bad for decor that didn’t cost us a dime!

And here is the house lit up in its entirety.

The hubs is in charge of outdoor light and, as always, has done an amazing job!
